Dusseldorf hasn't been all party though, there's been some architecture to see as well. Josh and I went out to Essen to see this old coal mine that has been transformed into an exhibition space. The ogange stairwell is the central circulation, with balck void beyond, it was like a beautiful skary dream from childhood! We spent all day there and we saw a fraction of the site! bought the book though... more to carry about...
On sunday Alicia and I set out on out bikes to the industrial area turned architecture nice waterfront space. Saw some ghery and lots of great stuff that I had never heard about before... and alicia played soccer with some kids on the street! She's becoming very integrated!
